Following an official visit to the University of Pittsburgh, 6-2, 225-pound St. John’s (Washington, D.C.) defensive end/linebacker prospect Tony Tucker has decided he is done with official visits…well, at least for the month of December. TechSideline.com caught up with the four-star prospect, who discussed his recent visit to Pitt as well as his previous official to Virginia Tech.
“It was real nice,” Tucker said of Pitt. “I went with my mother. She was really impressed with the academics. I mean, she was really impressed with it. Pitt caught her eye as far as academics. I was impressed with the academics too, but I was also impressed with the football program and what the head coach has been able to do with it. At Pitt, lots of people speak highly of the head coach. And it’s not bad that you’re right beside the defending Super Bowl champions.”
